--------------------------------
Summary: Hypothetical perf improvements in DocValuesRangeQuery:
reducing comparisons for some queries/segments
Key: LUCENE-7618
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-7618
Project: Lucene - Core
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Hoss Man
In reviewing the DocValuesRangeQuery code, it occured to me that there _might_
be some potential performance optimizations possible in a few cases relating
queries that involve explicitly specified open ranges (ie: min or max are null)
or in the case of SortedSet: range queries that are *effectively* open ended on
particular segments, because the min/max are below/above the minOrd/maxOrd for
the segment.
Since these seemed like semi-common situations (open ended range queries are
fairly common in my experience, i'm not sure about the secondary SortedSet
"ord" case, but it seemd potentially promising particularly for fields like
incrementing ids, or timestamps, where values are added sequentially and
likeley to be clustered together) I did a bit of experimenting and wanted to
post my findings in jira -- patch & details to follow in comments.
